Yep, and that wasn't accidental. By prohibiting carry on public transportation, they've pretty much made the law a moot point for the commoners. Aldermen, of course, will still be afforded armed protection on the taxpayers' dime.
I expected this when I read the dissenting opinion. The judge who wrote it mentioned that Illinois might be required to allow carry, but that the right could be rendered impossible to exercise on a place-by-place basis.
